Wills & Estates at Berwick Legal

Berwick's Leading Family Law Firm

Berwick Legal provides a complete service catering to all your Wills & Estates, Estate Planning and Estate Dispute Resolution requirements, including Applications for Probate and Administration with the Supreme Court of Victoria. Our highly trained staff deliver this service in an efficient, sensitive and cost effective manner ensuring that costs are minimised and beneficiaries receive their inheritances in a timely manner whilst protecting the estate and the trustee.

In the event that you wish to challenge a Will we can file the relevant documentation and represent you in a Part four application to the Supreme Court of Victoria seeking that the Will be amended and you receive your entitlements.

Making a legal Will ensures that your assets will be distributed to the people or persons you want. It gives your partner a family certainty and reduces the opportunity for dispute. Wills are especially important if either you or your partner have a child or children from a previous relationship.

Also in circumstances where you are not legally married to your partner, making a legal Will gives you both some comfort in knowing that you have agreed on how your assets will be distributed between family and friends.

We would also advise you to consider issues relating to superannuation, jointly held assets, and asset protection for your beneficiaries.
